Suicide Doesn'T Pay Poem by Tammy Arthur

So cold I hear voices
I try to speak but no one hears me

So many people touching me
I try to move but I can’t
I scream why don’t you hear me

Why am I so cold please just leave me alone
never any peace just pain so much pain
I hate myself for feeling this way

The voices come and go I feel myself
slipping away people are crying
so much sadness

Why? The pain is stopping
I am going to be free don’t be sad for me

Can’t you see today?
I say good-bye
to this thing we call life
because you see today I died

The voices are gone
they’ve stopped touching me
I feel nothing everything is so quiet

Ahh! ! peace at last but wait
why am I so hot?

No it can’t be not after everything
I've gone through please tell me it isn’t so
I've been condemned to hell
God said it wasn’t my time to go
